Hi Lucky,
Congratulations on achieving PCRU.
I'm just going to hijack the thread once more.
Hi Teds,
It's good that your doc is going to have a look at your marrow just to be on the safe side. The fact that you're feeling so much better has got to be a good sign (though I know that we have people here who have achieved PCRU and still feel physically unwell, but we are all different).
For me today is an exceptionally good day, I actually feel like I did before I started Gleevec. Not sure if it is because I have just got over a virus, or perhaps I've reached the turning point where I'm physically and mentally in a good spot and ready to get on with the rest of my life. Even taking my tablet this morning felt just like taking a blood pressure tablet etc. I bought an exercise bike a couple of days ago and started riding it in front of the TV. I'm only on it for 15 minutes, but will look to increase to an hour.
Though I'm not at PCRU like Lucky (and not sure whether Australian testing will ever tell me if I achieve it), I've achieved MMR and apart from a bit of fluid retention feel normal now and it is this hare's turn to cheer on my turtle friends from now on. I'll keep my fingers crossed that the news is good from your BMB.
Gerry
